    Because they determine which shows to keep reviewing in large part by which shows get the most comments. In other words, every comment here complaining about how they keep reviewing this show is just another tick on the "keep reviewing the show" counter.

    Sarah Palin?

    Wait, who got what?

    I'm going to go ahead and guess that the part he'd have written while sitting in the audience at the Emmy Awards wouldn't have been very good anyway.

    I'm glad to see Z Nation getting some love!

    Well, we know that there's a handful of people lounging around next to a pool in Zona, but (1) we don't know that the kidnapped doctors actually get to join them - if the next step for them is a life of luxury, it's weird that they marched them out to meet their new masters in chains instead of in swimsuits, and (2)

    I had a similar experience with an Irish monster movie called Grabbers. The tone of the movie is like watching Night of the Living Dead if it suddenly became Shaun of the Dead part way through (actually Tremors would be a better analogue for how the movie ends up because it's a monster movie, not a zombie movie, but

    I tried to take an airplane ride with either Kirk Cameron or Nicolas Cage but it ended in disaster. Raptured again.

    Because it's jarring to think of your mother in such radically different contexts in rapid succession.

    Okay, so, was it just the crappy speakers on my crappy TV, or did anyone else not hear any music playing from Alicia's phone, leading to a hilarious moment when it looked like she was trying to lead the undead by offering them cool tech? Honestly, at first I thought she was supposed to be using it to reflect light to

    I wonder if a wheelchair bound human who becomes a zombie in the TWD universe would be able to roll his or her chair around. There's a wheelchair zombie in Shaun of the Dead which always feels kind of off for a moment the first time it pops up (fortunately it's a comedy so it can afford to feel off in moments) but

    That would require the multiverse to contain two Launchpad McQuacks and two Gizmo-Ducks. I'm not sure I can wrap my feeble mammal brain around that.

    Yeah, I get why the plan in general might be worthwhile for clearing out large masses of zombies on the ground floor, in stairwells, etc., but it seems like going room-to-room was adding unnecessary risk to the plan. Just do one floor's worth of them at a time, only worry about the ones wandering around free, then, if

    I saw an episode of Wild 'N Out with Taran Killam when he was still just "one of the new guys" on SNL, and it took me forever to figure out where I knew him from, especially because I could swear they kept calling him "Terry" (or probably "Tarry" or "Tary" I suppose). I mean, it's possible I was mishearing "Taran,"

    I feel like the most groundbreaking thing about this premise is that Zorn goes out and interacts with the rest of the world openly, instead of hiding in the attic or pretending to be normal. Like, at first blush it seems like just another entry in the "don't let the nosy neighbors find out" genre of sitcom (Alf, Mork

    Whenever I hear about a show named after its star even though the star is playing a character with a different name it seems wrong to me … which is weird, considering how many classic sitcoms have used that conceit over the years: The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Cosby Show*, both of Bob

    This may have changed in recent years as transgender issues have become more prominent in the media, but the last time I saw them, official Associated Press style for transgendered people was to refer to them with whichever pronoun was suited to their physical gender at the time, which could lead to sentences like "He

    Every time I see that word I have to look it up to try to remember what it means, and I discover it apparently just means "creepy stuff people repeat on the internet" and realize why it never sticks in my brain.

    I hear he's bicuspid curious.

    Except that "Harley Smith" sounds like a real person's name, "Booster Smith" not so much. That's like pretending there's no difference between naming your kid "Roger Smith" and "Bugs Smith." People only laugh at Roger when he tells them his middle name is "Rabbit"; somehow it's even worse if you don't know Bugs's
